A natural decline in the production of collagen as people grow older is responsible for sagging skin and volume loss. For many patients, finding rejuvenating treatments that target the primary signs of ageing has yielded limited success – until now.PRP, used extensively in cardiac and orthopaedic surgery, as well as in the filed of sports injury medicine, is proving to be an innovative new way to tackle the ageing process.In a series of approximately two to three treatments each taking under an hour, patients can achieve truly amazing results that last, and are entirely natural.How can PRP help?By directly delivering platelet-rich plasma to the target area, PRP treatments work to rejuvenate the skin by prompting the body’s own healing processes. Saturating the skin with growth factors triggers the production of collagen and ultimately produces fantastic and natural results.Through a series of small injections, PRP therapy places concentrated growth factors directly where they are needed. Drawing on the patient’s own natural healing procedures to stimulate the body’s biological repair processes in order to promote collagen and elastin production means PRP is the prudent choice when it comes to patient satisfaction.Collagen works by giving skin its strength. Found in connective tissue, collagen along with other proteins, provides the skin’s elasticity and is responsible for maintaining the body’s overall structure. Increasing the production of naturally occurring collagen in the body is the very best way to improve the appearance of volume loss in the skin, this is why PRP is unique and effective.As platelets are the first cells to respond at the target site, PRP application improves clotting at the same time as releasing concentrated growth factors that stimulate tissue regeneration. This means that unlike other comparable rejuvenating treatments that can leave patients in need of lengthy recovery times, PRP actually aids in the healing process as well as speeding it up - and all at the same time as it works its rejuvenating magic.Advantages compared to dermal fillersIn addition, as a completely autologous treatment, PRP offers virtually no risk to the patient. PRP treatments carry significantly reduced risk of infection or allergic reaction, as well as a reduction in the chance of rejection of synthetic material.Unlike traditional dermal fillers that can only mimic the restoration of volume with limited effect, PRP treatments really do turn back the hands of time. PRP is effective, natural, safe, and produces long-lasting, beautiful results.There are very few patients who are contra-indicated for PRP treatment – this really is a smart choice when it comes to safety, great results, and value for money.Get in touch todayHere at Clinics Direct, we deliver everything you need to draw blood, prepare the treatment, and deliver it to the patient in our unique, single-use packs.If you want to find out more, fill out our online form to book a free demonstration of our unique system and see how PRP can work for your patients and your practice.
